Okay all, I've been watching a lot of the build videos and am very interested in building my own foam board airplane.
When thinking about which plane I should start out with, I have four different criteria in mind:
1. I live next to the Columbia River and it would be a shame to not take advantage of that, so I'd want something that can use wheels or floats or a pure float plane that can perform belly landings and be hand launched.
2. I need to have four channels. I used a simulator at my local friendly hobby shop and found, due to my playing video games, that I crashed three channel airplanes but did not crash four channel airplanes.
3. I'm a noob.
4. I live in a windy area.
4. I want something that is aesthetically pleasing to me.
With that in mind I have narrowed down the field to three (perhaps four) options. These are in no particular order the Simple Cub, The Sea Duck, the Sea Otter, and if it's released before Christmas and gets some floats added then the Legacy.
So which of these is the better choice? Is there an option that I have not considered?
